And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two?

JFK was the last traditional Democrat president. He was a committed anti-communist who loathed the progressive wing of his own party. He once told some of his campaign staffers that if the leftist Adlai Stevenson won the primary, he would publicly endorse Richard Nixon in the general election. Had he survived, he would have switched to the GOP by the late 60s.
